CameraAPI - Position of FS_POSITION_REFERENTIAL_AIRCRAFT

Version: 1.7.10.0

Frequency: Consistently

Severity: Blocker

Bug description:
When using the FS_POSITION_REFERENTIAL_AIRCRAFT, the camera position should be in the middle of the model instead of the “datum reference point” that always appears to be centered around the cockpit position/front of the aircraft. If unable, we absolutely need a way to get the XYZ offset between the datum and the center of the model.

Attachments:

This video shows the why it’s important. We should be rotating around the aircraft, not the cockpit/datum.

Hello @runshotgun

This is resolved with SDK 1.6.5 and SU5 Beta 1.7.16.0 where you now can choose between a SimObjet and SimObject_Datum referential.

Regards,
Sylvain

Working beautifully!
